Obviously I don't know what your finances are like, but is it possible she's just enjoying herself and considers it a hobby? Comparing it to other games, $100/month can seem ridiculous, but comparing it to other hobbies, it might not be that bad.

I used to be unwilling to spend any amount on a mobile game until I thought about how much I used to spend playing Magic: the Gathering. Sometimes hobbies cost money.

The CEO would just be a fall guy, and the decision-making would go to someone else.

I think this all the time. I have trouble being in the moment, but my life right now is possibly the best it'll ever be. So it's important that I take the time to be grateful for how things are right now.

A few years back the GOP closed a bunch of polling places in blue areas. It's flagrant voter suppression.

You skipped the part where Republicans closed polling locations in Democrat-leaning areas. The lines are intentional on election day.

I'm absolutely not joking. If you're cooking it for less than 45 minutes, you're not caramelizing the onions. Frequent stirring, adding water, whatever, you can get the color and texture of caramelization, but not the flavor.

I spent a couple of years making slightly disappointing meals because I was focused on the color and texture of my onions instead of the flavor. When I finally took the time to fully caramelize them again, I remembered what I had been missing.

Try it and taste the difference if you don't believe me.

American-style hotdog

What other kind of hot dog is there? That's just a hot dog.

Sure, you can use non-caramelized onions. You just won't get that sweetness.

Remember, it takes at least 45 minutes to caramelize an onion. If you're doing it for less than 45 minutes, then you're just cooking it.
